I think a lot of us if we are trueful with ourselves could point to times in our lives where we turned into an alien ourselves, went through life as a mindless drone and had those times we look back and can't remember.
It sounds like you are very blessed to me to learn things that many probably arent willing too or it is too painful of a process to accept.
I am so happy to hear of your acceptance of yourself. It allows you to accept others into your living journey. You now have a gift that hopefully other people around you will be drawn too. You can became a living teacher if you will.
One thing I try to do everyday is look at the sky many, many times a day. It keeps me in the present, living the answers as I go along and not getting trapped in the past or longing for the future.
Its a pleasure to read, your journey to a whole, balanced human being.
Thanks for sharing your continuing journey with us.
